California is one of the few states that allows women to purchase the medication at a pharmacy without having getting a prescription from a doctor. Women who request the pill must consult a pharmacist before being allowed to purchase the medication.

Market will close
USC, the owner of UV, asked for more money, which 32nd Street Market cannot afford.

For more than half a century, the 32nd Street Market has been a close-to-campus landmark.
But on Sept 30, that will change forever.
The market has not renewed its lease because USC, the property's owner, has asked for more money and the 32nd Street Market cannot afford it said Morrie Notrica, owner of the grocery store.
‘Time we have, money we need," Notrica said.
USC has owned 32nd Street Market property, along with the rest of the University Village Shopping Center, since September 1999.
Notrica said that he does not want to cause any commotion but disagrees with the way the management is handling things.
Since the university's takeover of
the shopping center, “it has been downhill ever since," Notrica said.
University Real Estate, the department in charge of University Village, released a statement through the USC News Service Sept 8 about the closure.
“The university is sorry to see the 32nd Street Market which has been a wonderfully generous member of our community, close," Gwen Louchouarn, associate senior vice president of Real Estate & Asset Management at USC, said in the statement "Like any prudent landlord and out of respect for our ten ant, we cannot disclose the reasons for the market's closure. We hope to find another market that can provide excellent services to our community."
When contacted later by the Daily Trojan. Louchouarn declined further comment.
After the market closes, Notrica said that he has no plans to reopen elsewhere.
“We started with this store and we are going to end with this store." he said.
Although Notrica, who has sent two children to USC, voiced his frustrations about the university’s control of the shopping center, he said that he is
also sympathetic because "they have to grow.”
But for many of the 32nd Street Market employees, the closure also means the end of an era in their own lives.
Many of the workers have been at the market for 20 or more years, Notrica said.
Checker Manuela Araujo, who has worked there for 17 years, said 32nd Street Market "is like my second home”
“All my friends are here. We have a good time working together," she said.
Araujo said that the employees found out about the closure two weeks ago.
"We feel so sorry. We don’t know what to do," she said.
Notrica posted signs on the doors and around the store to warn customers about the closure.
The handwritten message is simple. "Notice This market will officially close
— effective September 30. Thank you. Morrie.'
In an effort to keep the market open, employees launched a petition they plan to give to USC President
